Motorola’s new folding mobile phone sends a message of war to the competition with striking extras

Only a few days ago, Motorola, which is owned by Lenovo, confirmed that it will present new folding phones on June 1st, in which, based on preliminary rumors, the audience will be able to admire the direct successors of the Razr 2022 launched last summer.

If preliminary leaks are to be believed, the devices will be called Razr 40 Ultra and Razr 40 and will be powered by Qualcomm’s current flagship processor, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. And the rumor train is still not waiting for the manufacturer, this time a lot of revealing pictures and videos of the more expensive model have surfaced.

We owe the materials to veteran leaker Evan Blass, who has been successful with his predictions several times in the past, thus expanding the camp of more reliable sources. The birds have already been chirping about the fact that Motorola wants to make the Razr 40 Ultra more salable by boosting the capabilities of the external display, which Blass’ compositions now seem to support.

Based on the marketing materials shared on Twitter, the display, which can be activated even when folded, will not only have a full-fledged camera application, but will also be able to run other apps (e.g. Google Maps, TikTok) and games, so you don’t even have to open the folding screen to perform a series of tasks. mobile. In the gallery below, we have collected some more spectacular pictures of this on De Blass’s Twitter wall the Razer 40 Pro can also be admired in video form.

Overall, the phone looks particularly promising, and according to the leaker’s information, it will be marketed in the United States under the name Razor+. For the time being, it is questionable what the basic model can do in contrast, but there is a good chance that the miracle display shown in the pictures will not be available there.

Motorola’s move is surprising because it is similar to the Razer 40 series, the so-called For mobile phones with a “flip” or clamshell design, manufacturers have so far used external panels that only provide basic information, including the absolute market leader Samsung Z Flip series. The Chinese brand can thus now thoroughly promise its competitors, especially if it is accompanied by an understandable operating time and a digestible price.
